Before he receives the support of his county, bow-aver, Mr. Converse Bhould explain why it waa that he defeated the efforts of the Trustees of the Ohio Mechanical and Agricultural College to secure for the benefit of that institution certain State lands which are at present unproductive, or nearly so, and which would have added largely to the usefulness of that insti tution. The people of the county of Franklin, aside from their desire to see that institution take rank with the Michigan University and others of like character, aa an illustrious seat of learn, ing, have $300,000 in "hard cash" invest' ed In it; and they would be glad to know why their representative used hia it.flu-enee to prevent the Legislature from so materially, strengthening its endowment without expense lo the State.

If I were called upon to account for Theodore Tillon'a apotheosis in this scandal I should fill out the following notes: A preter-naturatiy good Dny, resembling the heroes of the Sunday School books, with long legs, and hair brushed bsck from his maiden temples, lie haa do bad behaviors, and reads unnecessarily eober books, and exclaimed once, to the eurprUe of his mother, "I will be a preacher of the Gnspel I" He worka up at S'thool without fignting, ia sometimes called "Sissy" by very bad boys, eschews both tobacco and bad words, and poses for literature. It is no news that he haa joined the church early, and aspires to teach a Bible class, or that he escorts the clergyman' daughters to parties, and wears serious intentions in hia lace and gait. He learns to go out of his tray to rebuke swearing, and strides off with indignation at bad manners in his company, lie grows sublimated, sedate, fond of the company of his elders, and is a moral jjurtenu. Boys who have no devil in them early entertain him unawares later in life. The young girls around the church, who are taught above all things in marrying a man not to marry a "wild" one, but to get aonie demure fireside saint of twenty or tweuiytwo, who can lead a hymn or say "grace ' at the table; these behold Apollo and Adonis, the youthful David and the deceased Abel, in "Dory" Tillon. There is competition for him. Precocious in nubility as in gravity, he marries, at twenty, an older woman than hiuiself, as he has since frequently said under oath, with a spiteful spirit. It was mean to marry an old girl and take advantage of her, but meatier to tell it. This senior wife had all the responsible emotions. She sublimated and spooned over her engagement, and has ever, since not been satisfied with doing anything until, like the woman who washed her Lord's feet, she also wiped them with her hair. Mrs. Til ton has been in a state of Convulsive dukabillt for the unnecessary d'lration of her days. Theodore Til ton submit ted to have his feet wiped. She was the champion fomller, and he the champion toadied for fifteen years. Con ceive a Blaine of a long legged man, cold and languid, perpetually licked by a cat which is perpetually kittening, and you see this facbrvmscliristul family. They conjugated the verb "to weep" in their daily rounds, and the woman mads a fool of ih man, who had a strong disposition to be a tyrant of himself. Other women assisted in the business, Theodore Tilton waa the idol of that part of Brooklyn Heights which regards Mr. Beei'her as above the earth. He waa flit tered Into a sordid cake of self-con . temptation, and still his grace and natu-, ral piety disguised the ossification. He grew more worldly without losing hia pre . cocious moral identity. With one long leg on the altar of religion, he spanned the wide distance to politics, and put the ether leg in a newspaper office. Aa an editor he dealt with every public man as if he was disciplining him in a deacon's meeting. He calmly handed lawyers, working out their client's cause, over to the stake. He bullied his minister in his o'.n pulpit, and behind hia back In the press, and, like too many reformers, grew enraged with his times from what he knew of himself and what he did not know of etlwr things. Headlong, rapidly fiercely, the latent devil, suppressed in the buy, broke out in the man. He awoke from aa illusion of greatness to a reality of contempt; a broken hearthstone and a departed wife, the wail of children ana ins aisgust of hi times.

Another Batch' of Witnesses Put Through the Mill. Further Confirmation of Beecher's Alibi. What Tilton Dlaelel ( Boon Compauloa. The Supply of Sal&cioui Sensations ' Banning Low. j New York, March 80. There was an unusual ruah to the Brooklyn Court room this morning, in consequence of a rnmor that Mr. Beeeher would testify. Nr. Crarts atated tbat a witness or importance, : Mr. Heery M. Cleveland, was very sick and about lo leave the city, aad asked that arrangements might be made at an early day to lake- hia tealimony, Judge Neilsoa being present, The Judge suggested tbat eouuael ahonld make UiC' necessary arrangements, but fixed no time. Henry B. Clafl in waa then called and his examination continued. He tes tified that the arbitrators James Free-land, Charles Slorrs and himself met on the time agreed, at Mr. Moulton's resi dence, Moulton, Bowen and Tilton being present. Alter bearing statements by filton and Bowen the arbitrators agreed that they should first burn all papers belonging to the scandal, and that Bowen should pay $7000 to Tilton, and they should sign the covenant. The pa pers to be burned were the letter of apology and the article in print dated tne 1st of January, 1873, besides other pBpera connected with the scandal. Moulton and Tillon agreed to this and seemed satisfied with the award. Bowen. said he had no papera to burn, and would like the return ol the Woodstock letter, which waa agreed to. The agreement waa then brought up and Tilton said he would like to alter it. I aaked what alterations he desired to make, and he took his pencil and interlined the paper and wrote something on another paper attached to it. The paper was then satisfactory to all of them. There waa considerable talk lor sometime. I took the covenant to Wilkeson next day, and received a clear copy from him. I think I carried it to Charlea otorrs to take to bowen, but the paper was returned to me without an v signature, and I took it to Bowen and got it atgned. It waa then given to Biorrs and given back tome with Tillon'a signature. I then took it to Betcher, and he signed it, after which it remained in my possession. 1 had a conversation with Mr. Beeeher in regard to taking Block in the Golden Age,-and be did not advise me in any way about it, This finished the direct, and Fullerton began thecross-examination. Witness testified that Mr. Tillon had Bhown him a prtss copy of a personal statement whicn he threatened to publish if Bowen did not give him satisfaction. Tilton insisted that publication would be made uuless Bowen made a statement with him. It waa said by Wilkeson and myself that Bowen would come into the seltlement, and that the papers relating to the matter should be burned. I waB present when Bowen and Beeeher signed the tripartite agreement. Beeeher signed it last, A printed slip was attached to the agreement. I do not know whether the paper was read, but it was paBsud around for inspection. We never went into the truth or untruth of the stories in tbe paper,, nor did we discuss them. I do nut know what became of the first draft of the tripartite agreement read by Wilkeson at the firat meeting. I took tbe completed agreement to Wilkeson, and have hot seen either of the papera since. Tilton proposed to leave the agreement when Bigned with Moulton, but this was objected to, and I proposed. Freeland ot Slorrs. I finally took the paper by agree-ment between Freeland and Sloors. Recess. ' Beeeher was absent during the entire morning session, but Mrs. Beeeher and her daughter in-law came in ahortly after the opening of the case, and occupied their usual places. JJvarts remained about half an hour and then left the case in the hands of the remaining counsel for the defense. After recess Louisa Joanna Bodgers, a young lady, took the Btand and testified that Bbe was a telegraph reporter in New York in June, 1873, in the employ of the Western Union Telegraph company, and, being handed a dispatch, aaid ahe received this message and was able to swear that she received it on the 2d of June. Mary C. Joseph, operator a Peekskill, testified to having received the eamo dispatch on the 2d of June, 1873. The next witness waa George T. Williams, who testified : I am law editor of the New York Herald, and have been a journalist for eighteen years. I was at one lime munaging editor ot the new York Times. Saw the Woodhuil publication of November 2, 1872, and saw the proof slips before it was produced publicly. 1 received the proof slips of the scan- la) against Beeeher. This was objected to. and Judge Neilson finally ruled out the last answer of the witness, who waa then allowed to leave tbe stand, Charles Slorrs was the next witness. He testified : Beside in Brooklyn, and have for twenty years. I am a commis sion merclAnt in New York for twenty- five yeara. Have known 111 ton lor twelve yearB and hpve bad friendy relations with him during that time.. In 1867, 1608 and 1869 he remitted money to me when he waa on lecturing tours. 1 sometimes saw Tillon two or three timea a week, and Bometimes oftener. We were in he habit of talking often on general affairs. I learned, on the 2 1 of J anuary,18a,lhat he was discharged from the Independent, I saw Tillon that day in bis bouse. 1 asked him if he had been discharged from the Independent and Union, and he said he was. lie seemed depressed ana delected. He said he wanted me lo go to f rank Moulton s witn ntm. we went, and on the way be Baid Beeeher and Mrs. Morse had been talking to Bowen against him, and that a lady had made some statements lo Bowen against li i in, and it was acaseof Joseph and fotiphar i wile over again; that lie had put his case in Mr. Moulton's hands, and that Moulton did not wish him to take any steps in the matter. When we got there, there was' a conversation In which Tillon complained of Mrs. Beeeher and Mis. Morse turning Bessie turner against mm He said Beeeher had said that he hum bled himself before him (Tilton) as be fore his God, and he would make him do so. 1 expressed my sympathy lor htm .net him on another occasion, when he said his wife had charged Belcher with having made improper proposals to her; that he had told this to Beeeher, and the latter had procured a retraction from her. and that Moulton had gone to Beeeher with a pistol and made him give jt up. in a conversation had with Tilton and Moulton at the letter's house. Moulton said. "Sam Wilkeson thinks I burned those papers. O. vest I burned them." and he laughed. Said he, "If I burned them, what would Theodore do in case of trouble," After the publication of the Woodhuil scandal, Tiltoa called at my house. He said it was an infamous article aad contained a great many lies about his wife and Beeeher, and that he waa writing a story about it, that Betel er had aaade improper proposals to hia wife, but that nothing criminal occurred, and that ebe was as pure as light. He spoke of having written WoodbuU'a life, and that it damaged him more thaa $10,000. I had a coaversatioa with Tillon at Oriqgton'a after hie wife left him. He aaid he must now, hie wife having left him, smash Elisabeth and Beeeher. I aaid I was sorry, and that this waa unfortunate. In August, 1874. I was sent f.r to Moulton's by Woodruff. I went there and had an interview with Moulton upstairs. Moulton laughed and aaid he did not know I would come to see a blackmailer. He also said Btecber had confessed bis adultery to him. and that if his advice had been followed, it would have been better. He also said "your brother must not sign tbe report of tbe Church aommitlee until I be cross-examined, or J will make another statemeut. He said he had been Beecher's fiwnd until he called bias a blackmailer, but now Beech er had got to look out for himself. This waa on August 28. Moulton had been down East before this interview. I do not remember Tilton charging his wife with adultery with Beeeher except on itfl enee. In a conversation witb me in 1871 or lsiii he talked ot aue-ing a Darlv for having said hia wife had committed adultery with Beeeher. After tne end ot a certain lawsuit againat Moulton last year, December 10, 1874, be sent for me to come and see him. I went and had a conversation with him. He said Beeeher was a liar, and used other words in aubatanee. He aaid also that he was a libertine. The Court here adjourned. It ia believed that Beecber will be on the witness stand to-morrow. NEW ORLEANS. Alleged Legislative Fraud and forgery. National Troops In Pursuit of the Mex . loan Raider. Civil Bights on Steamboats Brought to a Test. ' New Orleans, March SO The Gen eral Appropriation bill approved by the Governor and promulgated in the Bepub-lican to-day, is denounced by Lieutenant Governor Anloine and Speaker Hahn, in communication to the ecrettrv ot State, aa a grosB, unwarrantable and criminal act of forgery, and not the act certified and signed by them.

Some ranches doubtless have been robbed and burned, and some people been killed and some taken prisoners. The prisoners are reported to have escsped. ' 1 hese marauders have been driven from (be vicinity of Corpus Christ! by oilisens in pursuit. I have sent all my mounted force to intercept the robbers, and Gen. Hatch has sent for the same purpose. Many depredations have been oommltted along the river ot late, and several persons have been killed.

The Bush of the Closing- Honra-The Measure. l.oat and Won. The Sixtyfirat General Assembly of Ohio went out yesterday like a wholesale pyrotechnic establishment to which a combination fuse had been attached and lighted. For twentyfour hours previous to the welcome dissolution there was a series ot explosions that metaphorically shook the walla of the everlasting Capitol, The wicked Gordon-Haag war closed Monday evening about seven o'clock. A short recess was taken, after which both branches assembled for a protracted night session. The principal interest waa In the House. At one o'clock yesterday morning there was a rush of bills and a confusion that tested the patience of the Speaker and the Speaker pro tern., who held the reins of parliamentary government by turns. As quick as one measure would be disposed of half the members would be on their feet, holding manuscripts above their heads, and shouting "Mr. Speaker" in concert. 1 he Chair necessarily proceeded bv chance in recognizing members. The clerks read in sections and by platoons. and grew hoarse under the pressure of business. Members "buzzed' about the hall, and after each vote there was a gen eral wrestle to gather up those who in the contusion had not responded to their names, so that the constitutional majority might be obtained. While Bedlam was thus let loose, a few of the members who bad nothing to rush through, ranged themselves in the back oart of the hall and indulged in the an cient legislative barbariain of throwing paper wads and bundles. At three o'clock in the morning the report of the conference committee on the Toledo bill came up, and the previous Question was applied. After half a doz en names had been called, Thompson of Lucas aooressea ine opeaaer, and aaid be must insist that the members be relieved of the importunities of the lob byists, who were swarming round their seats. General Grosvenor moved that the pestiferous lobby be expelled. Speaker Converse ordered all persons not members to go without tbe bar of the House, and directed tbe rVrgeant-at-Arma lo carry Ihe order I a to .Sect. One member asked that his friend, a man who bad nothing to do with the Teledo business, might remain. But Ihe Speaker refused lo make any exception, and among those who had lo "git" were Alex. Sands sad T. C Campbell, of Cincinnati. They went ouunde the railing in good humor, but amidst considerable laughter. Tbe vote was taken and the Toledo bill went np, the conference report receiving fifty voles, three short of tbe constitutional majority. Before the previous question was ordered, Gordon got in a speech againat the bill, which ia supposed to have had considerable effect. There waa a delnge of private profani.y in the lobby. Tbe Hooks went through a few more local measures, and adjourned a little before four o'clock. Many members did not retire. The Legislature got to work again at 81 o'clock, and the mill ground rapidly till Ibe adjournment. The Toledo boeineaa waa resuscitated in the Honors by a re consideration, but waa killed again. Tbe House waa a Babylon during the most or the session. Members with resolutions in their hands were shouting to get the eye of the Speaker, and those who had nothing to do were rushing around in a general way. General Grosvenor offered a resolution of thanks to Speaker Converse. Gordon gave notice of intention to discuss, witb the intention ol throwing the resolution over and killing it; but in an instant about half the members were on their feet to move a suspension of the rules. Tbe rules were suspended and tbe resolution was adopted. When ihe hands of the clock pointed to ten o'clock, Gordon "bounced" the Speaker for permitting the session to continue, and said tbe Legislature was a de- lunct institution under tbe adjournment resolution. Gordon was so persistent In this matter that the Speaker peremptorily ordered him to ait down. There ia not much brotherly love between Mr. Gordon and the Speaker. On Monday when the vote waa taken on exonerating Mr, Converse iu the Wood county matter, Mr. Gordon did not respond to the call of his name, But after Gordon himself had been exonerated by a vote of the House, he asked to be record ed on the question of exonerating Mr. Converse, and voted "No." This raised the "bile" in Uncle Jim Thompson, and he aBked to be recorded on the Question of exonerating Gordon. His name waa called and he responded with a declamatory and inflammatory "No!" Several other members followed Thompson's lead, and placed themselves fornenst Gordon. borne or the most important business in the closing hours of the Legislature may be summarized aa follows: The license proposition was defeated; the Potter Toledo bill went under; the proposition to submit amendmenla to the nidi- ciary article of the Constitution was lost; a joint resolution, offered by General Grosvenor, ordering the printing of the testimony in the Wood county matter, waa adopted in the House, but defeated in the Senate; Senate joint resolution pro viding tor the sale of the old Blind Asylum building paased the House: a joint resolution by Mr, Thompson of Lucas, lor the payment or per diem in the holiday recess, waa defeated veas 29. nays 35, Tbe Toledo bill, after all the excitement, got half way official sanction. In the confusion incident to adjournment, it was placed on the Speaker'a desk, and was embellished with the signature of the presiding officer, along wilh many other bills that went up in a heap. The bill got over to the Senate, but was discovered there and thrown out before the Presi dent's pen got to it. Everything was excitement yesterday morning; but finally tbe Legislature dashed out in the blaze, and yesterday afternoon many "long breaths" were drawn. DIED.

Before he receives the support of his county, bow-aver, Mr. Converse Bhould explain why it waa that he defeated the efforts of the Trustees of the Ohio Mechanical and Agricultural College to secure for the benefit of that institution certain State lands which are at present unproductive, or nearly so, and which would have added largely to the usefulness of that insti tution. The people of the county of Franklin, aside from their desire to see that institution take rank with the Michigan University and others of like character, aa an illustrious seat of learn, ing, have $300,000 in "hard cash" invest' ed In it; and they would be glad to know why their representative used hia it.flu-enee to prevent the Legislature from so materially, strengthening its endowment without expense lo the State.

If I were called upon to account for Theodore Tillon'a apotheosis in this scandal I should fill out the following notes: A preter-naturatiy good Dny, resembling the heroes of the Sunday School books, with long legs, and hair brushed bsck from his maiden temples, lie haa do bad behaviors, and reads unnecessarily eober books, and exclaimed once, to the eurprUe of his mother, "I will be a preacher of the Gnspel I" He worka up at S'thool without fignting, ia sometimes called "Sissy" by very bad boys, eschews both tobacco and bad words, and poses for literature. It is no news that he haa joined the church early, and aspires to teach a Bible class, or that he escorts the clergyman' daughters to parties, and wears serious intentions in hia lace and gait. He learns to go out of his tray to rebuke swearing, and strides off with indignation at bad manners in his company, lie grows sublimated, sedate, fond of the company of his elders, and is a moral jjurtenu. Boys who have no devil in them early entertain him unawares later in life. The young girls around the church, who are taught above all things in marrying a man not to marry a "wild" one, but to get aonie demure fireside saint of twenty or tweuiytwo, who can lead a hymn or say "grace ' at the table; these behold Apollo and Adonis, the youthful David and the deceased Abel, in "Dory" Tillon. There is competition for him. Precocious in nubility as in gravity, he marries, at twenty, an older woman than hiuiself, as he has since frequently said under oath, with a spiteful spirit. It was mean to marry an old girl and take advantage of her, but meatier to tell it. This senior wife had all the responsible emotions. She sublimated and spooned over her engagement, and has ever, since not been satisfied with doing anything until, like the woman who washed her Lord's feet, she also wiped them with her hair. Mrs. Til ton has been in a state of Convulsive dukabillt for the unnecessary d'lration of her days. Theodore Til ton submit ted to have his feet wiped. She was the champion fomller, and he the champion toadied for fifteen years. Con ceive a Blaine of a long legged man, cold and languid, perpetually licked by a cat which is perpetually kittening, and you see this facbrvmscliristul family. They conjugated the verb "to weep" in their daily rounds, and the woman mads a fool of ih man, who had a strong disposition to be a tyrant of himself. Other women assisted in the business, Theodore Tilton waa the idol of that part of Brooklyn Heights which regards Mr. Beei'her as above the earth. He waa flit tered Into a sordid cake of self-con . temptation, and still his grace and natu-, ral piety disguised the ossification. He grew more worldly without losing hia pre . cocious moral identity. With one long leg on the altar of religion, he spanned the wide distance to politics, and put the ether leg in a newspaper office. Aa an editor he dealt with every public man as if he was disciplining him in a deacon's meeting. He calmly handed lawyers, working out their client's cause, over to the stake. He bullied his minister in his o'.n pulpit, and behind hia back In the press, and, like too many reformers, grew enraged with his times from what he knew of himself and what he did not know of etlwr things. Headlong, rapidly fiercely, the latent devil, suppressed in the buy, broke out in the man. He awoke from aa illusion of greatness to a reality of contempt; a broken hearthstone and a departed wife, the wail of children ana ins aisgust of hi times.

Any one who is at all familiar with the atbte of art cul tivation at the Prussian court, a court where a mounted soldier in any metal ia considered the highest type of art, and where the prevailing grade or cultivation is as low aa among Wallenaleiu's Generals, can very well understand why Count TJaedom enjoys a limited degree of authority.

Alter bearing statements by filton and Bowen the arbitrators agreed that they should first burn all papers belonging to the scandal, and that Bowen should pay $7000 to Tilton, and they should sign the covenant. The pa pers to be burned were the letter of apology and the article in print dated tne 1st of January, 1873, besides other pBpera connected with the scandal. Moulton and Tillon agreed to this and seemed satisfied with the award. Bowen. said he had no papera to burn, and would like the return ol the Woodstock letter, which waa agreed to. The agreement waa then brought up and Tilton said he would like to alter it. I aaked what alterations he desired to make, and he took his pencil and interlined the paper and wrote something on another paper attached to it. The paper was then satisfactory to all of them. There waa considerable talk lor sometime. I took the covenant to Wilkeson next day, and received a clear copy from him. I think I carried it to Charlea otorrs to take to bowen, but the paper was returned to me without an v signature, and I took it to Bowen and got it atgned. It waa then given to Biorrs and given back tome with Tillon'a signature. I then took it to Betcher, and he signed it, after which it remained in my possession. 1 had a conversation with Mr. Beeeher in regard to taking Block in the Golden Age,-and be did not advise me in any way about it, This finished the direct, and Fullerton began thecross-examination. Witness testified that Mr. Tillon had Bhown him a prtss copy of a personal statement whicn he threatened to publish if Bowen did not give him satisfaction. Tilton insisted that publication would be made uuless Bowen made a statement with him. It waa said by Wilkeson and myself that Bowen would come into the seltlement, and that the papers relating to the matter should be burned. I waB present when Bowen and Beeeher signed the tripartite agreement. Beeeher signed it last, A printed slip was attached to the agreement. I do not know whether the paper was read, but it was paBsud around for inspection. We never went into the truth or untruth of the stories in tbe paper,, nor did we discuss them. I do nut know what became of the first draft of the tripartite agreement read by Wilkeson at the firat meeting. I took tbe completed agreement to Wilkeson, and have hot seen either of the papera since. Tilton proposed to leave the agreement when Bigned with Moulton, but this was objected to, and I proposed. Freeland ot Slorrs. I finally took the paper by agree-ment between Freeland and Sloors. Recess. ' Beeeher was absent during the entire morning session, but Mrs. Beeeher and her daughter in-law came in ahortly after the opening of the case, and occupied their usual places. JJvarts remained about half an hour and then left the case in the hands of the remaining counsel for the defense. After recess Louisa Joanna Bodgers, a young lady, took the Btand and testified that Bbe was a telegraph reporter in New York in June, 1873, in the employ of the Western Union Telegraph company, and, being handed a dispatch, aaid ahe received this message and was able to swear that she received it on the 2d of June. Mary C. Joseph, operator a Peekskill, testified to having received the eamo dispatch on the 2d of June, 1873. The next witness waa George T. Williams, who testified : I am law editor of the New York Herald, and have been a journalist for eighteen years. I was at one lime munaging editor ot the new York Times. Saw the Woodhuil publication of November 2, 1872, and saw the proof slips before it was produced publicly. 1 received the proof slips of the scan- la) against Beeeher. This was objected to. and Judge Neilson finally ruled out the last answer of the witness, who waa then allowed to leave tbe stand, Charles Slorrs was the next witness. He testified : Beside in Brooklyn, and have for twenty years. I am a commis sion merclAnt in New York for twenty- five yeara. Have known 111 ton lor twelve yearB and hpve bad friendy relations with him during that time.. In 1867, 1608 and 1869 he remitted money to me when he waa on lecturing tours. 1 sometimes saw Tillon two or three timea a week, and Bometimes oftener. We were in he habit of talking often on general affairs. I learned, on the 2 1 of J anuary,18a,lhat he was discharged from the Independent, I saw Tillon that day in bis bouse. 1 asked him if he had been discharged from the Independent and Union, and he said he was. lie seemed depressed ana delected. He said he wanted me lo go to f rank Moulton s witn ntm. we went, and on the way be Baid Beeeher and Mrs. Morse had been talking to Bowen against him, and that a lady had made some statements lo Bowen against li i in, and it was acaseof Joseph and fotiphar i wile over again; that lie had put his case in Mr. Moulton's hands, and that Moulton did not wish him to take any steps in the matter. When we got there, there was' a conversation In which Tillon complained of Mrs. Beeeher and Mis. Morse turning Bessie turner against mm He said Beeeher had said that he hum bled himself before him (Tilton) as be fore his God, and he would make him do so. 1 expressed my sympathy lor htm .net him on another occasion, when he said his wife had charged Belcher with having made improper proposals to her; that he had told this to Beeeher, and the latter had procured a retraction from her. and that Moulton had gone to Beeeher with a pistol and made him give jt up. in a conversation had with Tilton and Moulton at the letter's house. Moulton said. "Sam Wilkeson thinks I burned those papers. O. vest I burned them." and he laughed. Said he, "If I burned them, what would Theodore do in case of trouble," After the publication of the Woodhuil scandal, Tiltoa called at my house. He said it was an infamous article aad contained a great many lies about his wife and Beeeher, and that he waa writing a story about it, that Betel er had aaade improper proposals to hia wife, but that nothing criminal occurred, and that ebe was as pure as light. He spoke of having written WoodbuU'a life, and that it damaged him more thaa $10,000. I had a coaversatioa with Tillon at Oriqgton'a after hie wife left him. He aaid he must now, hie wife having left him, smash Elisabeth and Beeeher. I aaid I was sorry, and that this waa unfortunate. In August, 1874. I was sent f.r to Moulton's by Woodruff. I went there and had an interview with Moulton upstairs. Moulton laughed and aaid he did not know I would come to see a blackmailer. He also said Btecber had confessed bis adultery to him. and that if his advice had been followed, it would have been better. He also said "your brother must not sign tbe report of tbe Church aommitlee until I be cross-examined, or J will make another statemeut. He said he had been Beecher's fiwnd until he called bias a blackmailer, but now Beech er had got to look out for himself. This waa on August 28. Moulton had been down East before this interview. I do not remember Tilton charging his wife with adultery with Beeeher except on itfl enee. In a conversation witb me in 1871 or lsiii he talked ot aue-ing a Darlv for having said hia wife had committed adultery with Beeeher. After tne end ot a certain lawsuit againat Moulton last year, December 10, 1874, be sent for me to come and see him. I went and had a conversation with him. He said Beeeher was a liar, and used other words in aubatanee. He aaid also that he was a libertine. The Court here adjourned. It ia believed that Beecber will be on the witness stand to-morrow. NEW ORLEANS. Alleged Legislative Fraud and forgery. National Troops In Pursuit of the Mex . loan Raider. Civil Bights on Steamboats Brought to a Test. ' New Orleans, March SO The Gen eral Appropriation bill approved by the Governor and promulgated in the Bepub-lican to-day, is denounced by Lieutenant Governor Anloine and Speaker Hahn, in communication to the ecrettrv ot State, aa a grosB, unwarrantable and criminal act of forgery, and not the act certified and signed by them.

Some ranches doubtless have been robbed and burned, and some people been killed and some taken prisoners. The prisoners are reported to have escsped. ' 1 hese marauders have been driven from (be vicinity of Corpus Christ! by oilisens in pursuit. I have sent all my mounted force to intercept the robbers, and Gen. Hatch has sent for the same purpose. Many depredations have been oommltted along the river ot late, and several persons have been killed.

The Bush of the Closing- Honra-The Measure. l.oat and Won. The Sixtyfirat General Assembly of Ohio went out yesterday like a wholesale pyrotechnic establishment to which a combination fuse had been attached and lighted. For twentyfour hours previous to the welcome dissolution there was a series ot explosions that metaphorically shook the walla of the everlasting Capitol, The wicked Gordon-Haag war closed Monday evening about seven o'clock. A short recess was taken, after which both branches assembled for a protracted night session. The principal interest waa In the House. At one o'clock yesterday morning there was a rush of bills and a confusion that tested the patience of the Speaker and the Speaker pro tern., who held the reins of parliamentary government by turns. As quick as one measure would be disposed of half the members would be on their feet, holding manuscripts above their heads, and shouting "Mr. Speaker" in concert. 1 he Chair necessarily proceeded bv chance in recognizing members. The clerks read in sections and by platoons. and grew hoarse under the pressure of business. Members "buzzed' about the hall, and after each vote there was a gen eral wrestle to gather up those who in the contusion had not responded to their names, so that the constitutional majority might be obtained. While Bedlam was thus let loose, a few of the members who bad nothing to rush through, ranged themselves in the back oart of the hall and indulged in the an cient legislative barbariain of throwing paper wads and bundles. At three o'clock in the morning the report of the conference committee on the Toledo bill came up, and the previous Question was applied. After half a doz en names had been called, Thompson of Lucas aooressea ine opeaaer, and aaid be must insist that the members be relieved of the importunities of the lob byists, who were swarming round their seats. General Grosvenor moved that the pestiferous lobby be expelled. Speaker Converse ordered all persons not members to go without tbe bar of the House, and directed tbe rVrgeant-at-Arma lo carry Ihe order I a to .Sect. One member asked that his friend, a man who bad nothing to do with the Teledo business, might remain. But Ihe Speaker refused lo make any exception, and among those who had lo "git" were Alex. Sands sad T. C Campbell, of Cincinnati. They went ouunde the railing in good humor, but amidst considerable laughter. Tbe vote was taken and the Toledo bill went np, the conference report receiving fifty voles, three short of tbe constitutional majority. Before the previous question was ordered, Gordon got in a speech againat the bill, which ia supposed to have had considerable effect. There waa a delnge of private profani.y in the lobby. Tbe Hooks went through a few more local measures, and adjourned a little before four o'clock. Many members did not retire. The Legislature got to work again at 81 o'clock, and the mill ground rapidly till Ibe adjournment. The Toledo boeineaa waa resuscitated in the Honors by a re consideration, but waa killed again. Tbe House waa a Babylon during the most or the session. Members with resolutions in their hands were shouting to get the eye of the Speaker, and those who had nothing to do were rushing around in a general way. General Grosvenor offered a resolution of thanks to Speaker Converse. Gordon gave notice of intention to discuss, witb the intention ol throwing the resolution over and killing it; but in an instant about half the members were on their feet to move a suspension of the rules. Tbe rules were suspended and tbe resolution was adopted. When ihe hands of the clock pointed to ten o'clock, Gordon "bounced" the Speaker for permitting the session to continue, and said tbe Legislature was a de- lunct institution under tbe adjournment resolution. Gordon was so persistent In this matter that the Speaker peremptorily ordered him to ait down. There ia not much brotherly love between Mr. Gordon and the Speaker. On Monday when the vote waa taken on exonerating Mr, Converse iu the Wood county matter, Mr. Gordon did not respond to the call of his name, But after Gordon himself had been exonerated by a vote of the House, he asked to be record ed on the question of exonerating Mr. Converse, and voted "No." This raised the "bile" in Uncle Jim Thompson, and he aBked to be recorded on the Question of exonerating Gordon. His name waa called and he responded with a declamatory and inflammatory "No!" Several other members followed Thompson's lead, and placed themselves fornenst Gordon. borne or the most important business in the closing hours of the Legislature may be summarized aa follows: The license proposition was defeated; the Potter Toledo bill went under; the proposition to submit amendmenla to the nidi- ciary article of the Constitution was lost; a joint resolution, offered by General Grosvenor, ordering the printing of the testimony in the Wood county matter, waa adopted in the House, but defeated in the Senate; Senate joint resolution pro viding tor the sale of the old Blind Asylum building paased the House: a joint resolution by Mr, Thompson of Lucas, lor the payment or per diem in the holiday recess, waa defeated veas 29. nays 35, Tbe Toledo bill, after all the excitement, got half way official sanction. In the confusion incident to adjournment, it was placed on the Speaker'a desk, and was embellished with the signature of the presiding officer, along wilh many other bills that went up in a heap. The bill got over to the Senate, but was discovered there and thrown out before the Presi dent's pen got to it. Everything was excitement yesterday morning; but finally tbe Legislature dashed out in the blaze, and yesterday afternoon many "long breaths" were drawn. DIED.
